Good morning, I use several php scripts run via console and these work like a charm! It's comparable to running vbs scripts but with a lot more available functions (like mailing, ftp-ing, ...); i'd definitely recommend the usage! One of my favorites: get the contents of a ftp directory, log the files to a database and copy them to another remote machine; afterwards send an email with a list of files to a defined user list - that would've been pretty complex in vbs!
